I came down Market into work on Monday. It’s crisp and sunny and gorgeous. Fabulous fall weather. When I was getting ready to head home for lunch, I noticed that they were doing a fashion shoot outside my office window. A little low on the expectations if they’re standing on recycling bin in the alley by my office:
I got this pic on Market looking towards the Ferry Building from Montgomery on the way back to work:
After work I headed off down 2nd to Townsend. I caught the last bit of the sunset:
I continued on Townsend to 7th to Brannon and into REI where they helped me get my front light attached correctly and I got a new rear fender. I continued on Brannon to 9th to Harrison to 24th to Valencia to Tiffany to 29th to San Jose to Wilder to Diamond to Monterey into Santa Clara to Portola to Claremont to Dewey to Laguna Honda into 7th to Hugo to 3rd to Frederick to Stanyan to Page to Scott to Duboce to Castro to 17th and home for dinner.
Mr. Poe is still on vacation and woe has descended upon the household. I had a crappy dinner and then took the dogs for a walk up to Mount Olympus. There’s the remains of a monumental statue of libery that used to stand on the top that was removed in the 50′s and much of the park replaced by condos. There’s an interesting article about it here. The site is overgrown with trees now and it’s hard to imagine that once it was a well known tourist stop and visible from much of the city.
